    The food was average; the wine was good and not too pricey for a bottle.

    Good food, including what’s offered on the kids menu, which you don’t see in many NYC restaurants. Friendly and attentive service.

    The service was exceptional. Carla was an excellent server and very understandable. The food was great, at perfect temperatures and also the pancakes were the best we had in a while. Coffee in no need of sugar because the taste was perfect and the complementary mimosa was excellent.
